Music that reflects Brazil's changing fortunes

Bixiga 70 is a nine-piece band from S茫o Paulo. Maur铆cio Fleury (keyboards and guitar) and Cuca Ferreira (baritone sax and flute) talked to Weekend about how Brazil's last few years of recession, corruption, violent crime and now a nasty presidential campaign have affected people and changed the music they make. Their new album is called Quebra Cabeca, which means puzzle.
